  • [Spoken Track]
  • [Tripitena:]
  • My love
  • The king by any other name a pissoir
  • You, my love tower over them all
  • they are but vermin beneath your heels
  • They are monkeys
  • Suit them, frame them to your own vision
  • but do not let one false word
  • of mockery seep through to your vast heart
  • I have seen you from close and afar and your worth
  • far exceeds your height, your width
  • the depth of your sorrow
  • Oh willful outcast doth thou not see the light of our love
  • our linked fortunes
  • our hearts melded together
  • into one fine golden braided finery
  • They listen to the music of idiots and amuse themselves
  • with the sordid Miseries of their businesses
  • They are not the things of angels
  • nor of any higher outpost that humanity might aspire to
  • Your loathsome vomitous
  • businessman king is of the lowest order
  • his advisors
  • crumbling mockeries of education driven by avarice
  • My love
  • dress them in the suits of mockery
  • and in their advanced state of stupidity
  • and senility
  • burn and destroy them so their ashes might join the compost
  • which they so much deserve
  • If justice on this earth be fleeting
  • let us for once hear the weeping
  • and the braying of the businessman king
  • Let them be the the orangutans they are
  • and set them blazing from the chandelier for all to see
  • hanging from the ceiling by their ridiculous chains
  • and petticoats which you will have them wear
  • under the guise of costumic buffoonery
  • He who underestimates
  • in time is bound to find the truth sublime
  • and hollow lie upon the grates of systemic disorder
  • Businessmen
  • you're not worth shitting on
